Stan the Sentinal:
Location, Gettysburgh, PA
In a quiet museum, a lone figure sits in the gloom. He has his back to a display that has (?) one of the original copies of the Gettysburgh Address. The sentinal has decided that HE must guard one of the seminal writings in American History. He is dressed in Vietnam era camo, he has a Browning Semi-Auto 12 ga. shotgun. On his hip is a Colt 1911 .45. He has PLENTY of ammo for both weapons. Plus a really wicked looking Bowie Knife.
Stan has stockpiled a large amount of Vietnam era "C" rations, water, a sleeping bag, and various other camping articles. He has rigged the entrances with alarms. (Mostly very fine fishing line attached to tin cans with rocks, bells and other noise producing items.)
Stan feels that he is performing "A Sacred Duty". There is no telling how to "talk him down".
Twists:
1) That is REALLY one of the five known copies of the Gettysburgh Address!!!
2) Stan was a GB that was ordered to collect the G.A. and bring it to the Presidential Retreat in Maryland. The chaos of TDM unhinged his mind so that he imagines his orders are to protect vs. retrieve.
